Jerry, the manager of a small printing company, needs to replace a worn out copy machine. He is considering two machines; each h

as a monthly lease cost and a cost per page that is copied: • Machine 1 has a $422 monthly lease with a 2.1 cent per page cost up to 250 pages, and then 1.4 cent per page after the 1st 250 pages. • Machine 2 has a $566 monthly lease with a 1.6 cent per page cost up to 250 pages, and then 0.9 cent per page after the 1st 250 pages. Jerry knows the break-even point is more than 250 pages for each machine.

Machine 1

$422 monthly lease.

1.4 cent per page after the 1st 250 pages.

Machine 2

$566 monthly lease.

0.9 cents per page after the 1st 250 pages.

Selling price 5.0 cents

Break-even point= fixed costs/ contribution margin

Machine 1:

1 dollar= 100 cents

Break-even point= 422 / (0.05 - 0.014)= 11,722 copies

Machine 2:

Break-even point= 566 / (0.05 - 0.009)= 13,805 units

In recent years the cost of producing organic produce in the United States has decreased largely due technological advancement.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Suppose technological advancement has helped in decreasing the cost of producing organic produce. This means that the farmers can now produce more at the same cost. As a result, the supply of organic produce will increase. This will cause a rightward shift in the supply curve.  

At the same time, the demand for organic produce has increased. This will lead to a rightward shift in the demand curve.  

The rightward shift in both demand and supply curve will lead to an increase in the equilibrium quantity. The change in the price level depends on the extent of the change in demand and supply.

Rank the following types of businesses in order of risk to you, with the highest being number 1: partnership, limited partnershi
kompoz [17]

Answer:

  1. Sole Proprietorship
  2. Partnership
  3. Limited Partnership
  4. Limited Liability Company      

Explanation:

Sole Proprietorship is the type of business in which the liability is not limited. Due to this issue, the owner is solely responsible to pay off the debts of company from his personal owned assets if the business goes bankrupt.

Partnership is just like sole proprietorship but here the partners are the only responsible persons to payoff the debt of the company because the liability is limitless. The burden of the company debts is equally shared among the partners.

Limited Partnership is less risky because the liability is limited and only the amount invested in the business is subjected to the payment of borrowings from the lenders. The limited partner is responsible for his actions which means if his misdeed resulted in fine then it would be paid from his share first and then the other partners are equally liable to for compensation if their is still any amount left.

In the case of Limited liability company, the liability is limited and the burden of the payment of the liability falls on the company. So the investor is not subjected to pay the debts of the company because the limited liability company is a separate entity and is solely liable to pay for its debts.

A machine costs $1,000 and has a 3-year life. the estimated salvage value at the end of three years is $100. the project is expe
AnnyKZ [126]
Cost of machine = $1,000

NPV of revenues = p( \frac{1- (1+RoR)^{-n} }{RoR} ) = 600( \frac{1- (1+0.1)^{-3} }{0.1} ) = $1,492.11

NPV of salvage value = FV ( \frac{1}{ (1+RoR)^{n} } )= 100( \frac{1}{ (1+0.1)^{3} } ) = $75.13

Total NPV = -1000+1492.11+75.13 = $567.24 ≈ $567

The landlord of an office building charges tenants $150 per hour for extra HVAC usage after hours. During the last three years,
lidiya [134]

Answer:

$78,375

Explanation:

Actual HVAC usage = 500 + (500 × 10%) = 500 + 50 = 550

Total HVAC income before credit loss = 550 × $150 = $82,500

Total HVAC income before credit loss =  $82,500 - ($82,500 × 5%) = $82,500 - $4,125 = $78,375

Therefore, the approximate heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) revenue the landlord will realize is $78,375.
